I’M DONE WITH DIALOGUE!!!!!
Ok, so I’ll really never be done with dialogue – I’ll be studying it the rest of my life- but as far as saying it in posture clinic goes- I’m done! I did Head to Knee & Spine Twisting today, both I did in front of Jonie from Houston so that was kind of cool. We’re not actually done with posture clinic, there are still lots of people that have to do Spine Twisting & even after that they may have us go back & deliver 3 or so postures at a time to have a little practice with what it will really be like teaching. Even then that can’t fully prepare us to teach an entire 90n minute class. It will be so nerve racking to take what we have done here- which was to deliver 1 posture at a time & only one side of each posture (for those who don’t know In Bikram Yoga you do every posture 2 times & most postures have a right & left side) & suddenly turn it in to a real 90 minute class with 2 sets of each posture. It will be exciting though!
Yesterday we had lecture both afternoon & evening from a man named Jon Burras, AKA “The Fascia Guy”. It was a very interesting talk about fascia, which is connective tissue that runs all through your body & is what transports nutrients to your bones; thus in order to have healthy bones you have to have healthy fascia. Fascia is a liquid like substance that hardens when cooled & basically melts when heated and is able to be stretched & re-shaped. So it was a really good lecture- some people didn’t agree with a lot of things he said but I found it to make a lot of sense.
This mornings class was taught by Jonie, then we had posture clinic, then the evening class was taught by Ren who is from Headquarters in LA- I enjoyed his class, he added a lot of humor to it. Not to mention that pretty much all 309 people were wearing black & orange and some had costumes on- everyone was in a really good mood tonight.
We have lecture tonight but no one will tell us who is lecturing so we’re all interested to find out since we usually know ahead of time who the speaker will be.
